Everyday in America, numerous construction, industrial and manufacturing workers are killed or maimed due to the negligent conduct on the part of their employer, a co-employee or that of a third party working on the jobsite. By the very nature of a industrial setting, many dangerous situations exists which can cause injury and death. Industrial jobsite and manufacturing plant injuries commonly are cause by falls from ladders and scaffolding, crane accidents, toxic chemical exposures, asbestos exposures, falls from roofs, falls in holes without guarding or barricades, electrocutions, lack of catch nets, back injury due to heavy lifting, and personal injuries from being hit by falling objects in refineries, warehouses and construction sites.
Many other workers are injured while using defective or dangerous products including scaffolding, cranes, power tools, power lines, derricks, hoists, conveyors, woodworking tools, ladders, winches, trucks, graters, scraper, tractors, bulldozers, punch presses, machinery, lift trucks, skid loaders, bobcats, forklifts, as well as many other types of equipment found at or near industrial, refinery and factory workers.
